Zhubei City, Hsinchu County｜Hotpot

Huge menu of different soup pots to choose from. You can choose your spice level. They do have an English menu as well. The basic pots cost 150-160nt. It is enough for a meal in itself. The pot includes some meat, veggies, glass noodles. Their 'salad bar' is not salad. It is free rice, stewed minced pork, sauces, drinks (black lemon tea when I went, a soda fountain with 4 flavors, 4 flavors of ice cream and different soft serve flavors (1 machine but they change the flavors) and packages of instant noodles you can add to your pot. You have the option of purchasing more meat, seafood, vegetables and noodles as well. The prices are very reasonable. We ordered extra plates (2 beef, 2 chicken, 1 cabbage, 1 mushrooms) our total bill for the extra plates and 2 pots was 640nt. It was too much extra food. I'd suggest only 1 extra meat if you really want it. The vibe is extremely relaxed and zen with soft instrumental Chinese music, low lights, refreshing air con, not overly busy and crowded like other places. Tables for 2 beside tables for 4 but spacious. The tables aren't packed together so you bump chairs with the person at the table behind you. Staff are very welcoming and even came outside after we left to say thank you. Open until 10pm which is a bonus.

The place is clean. The food is great for its price, and we were able to communicate well with owner since they have english menu. always looking forward dining here. My favorite is Kimchi with cheese soup.

Good tasting with free flow of rice, ice cream and drinks. Their Kimchi pot has a smooth taste, as opposed to the usual slight pungent one. Definitely will come again. Oh, and they have lots of interesting deco.
